The good growth story - how purpose, sustainability and innovation have built the Graze brand Purposing

    • Management

Pioneers of purposeful business have been around for decades. Graze is a recent addition rewriting the snacking playbook for healthy people and planet. But what if balancing the needs of society with what's good for profits was required by law for every business?
On this episode of Purposing, Becky Willan speaks to healthy snack CEO, Joanna Allen. She joined British supermarket staple Graze in 2020, believing customers shouldn't compromise between taste and nutrition. With this purpose built into everything Graze does, the business isn't afraid to lean into big decisions or tough conversations. 
And Joanna's taking these conversations beyond the four walls of the company. Reengineering product packaging to make it more sustainable meant new partnerships with suppliers. And beyond this, she's now a prominent campaigner for the Better Business Act.
